Gosford racing tips

—

Race 1. (13:25) Central Coast Fiat BM64 (2100m)

#3 – Aussie Nation @ $2.60

BET NOW

Aussie Nation is getting close to posting a win after back-to-back placings, and this race is there for the taking.

The six-year-old son of Australia owns a win and five placings from 11 starts overall, and he should appreciate getting 1.5kg off his back.

The $2.60 is likely to shorten on race day, so snap up the price.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 2. (14:00) Central Coast Ram Maiden (1600m)

#3 – Above the Law @ $1.90

BET NOW

Above the Law runs at short odds after posting four placings in five starts, and he won’t get a better chance to secure a win.

The three-year-old son of Harry Angel has run well in soft conditions, and his current odds could firm to around $1.70 on race day.

He’s worth including in horse racing multi bets.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 3. (14:35) Omoda Jaecoo Midway Maiden (1000m)

#8 – Global Goal @ $10.00

BET NOW

John Sargent lines up Global Goal, who could make a winning debut following a recent trial placing at Randwick.

The two-year-old filly by Pinatubo is bred to show early speed, and she is going under the radar with bookmakers.

We’re happy to take the risk and include her in our selections.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (15:10) Gosford Nissan Maiden (1200m)

#3 – Compensation @ $2.00

BET NOW

Money has come for Compensation, who ran third on debut at Warwick Farm, which is a good form guide for racing at Gosford.

The three-year-old son of Written Tycoon wasn’t far behind Castlejohn and Metallic Cat, with the latter since breaking maidens.

It’s a good form race, and he won’t take long to win.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 5. (15:45) Central Coast GMSV BM64 (1200m)

#1 – Maluku @ $3.80

BET NOW

Looking to remain unbeaten is Maluku, who wore down some nice enough types on debut at Wyong.

The Joe Pride-trained filly is bred to win a few races early in her career, and we know she will handle the soft track conditions.

Carrying 60.5kg isn’t easy for a filly, but she will give punters a good sight.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (16:20) Central Coast Leapmotor BM64 (1200m)

#9 – Pimlico @ $4.20

BET NOW

Pimlico will need luck from the outside barrier, but he is good enough to put this field away.

The three-year-old son of Extreme Choice owns a win and two placings from five starts, and in-form jockey Zac Lloyd takes the ride.

After opening at $5, money has come for him to prevail, which is a good sign.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (16:55) Vale Albert Stapleford BM64 (1000m)

#2 – Cool Storm @ $10.00

BET NOW

Punters get value odds for Cool Storm, who should be fitter for two runs under her belt this preparation.

The five-year-old mare by Toronado owns four wins and four placings from 14 starts, so she has a good winning strike rate.

She gets the inside draw and a 3kg claim, which helps her chances.

Stake: 1 Unit
